hi! we're actively working on this issue -- if you're personally experiencing this issue, it would be really helpful to get either a tcpdump of it occurring, or a curl -vvv simulating the issue. in lieu of those, you can also send: date/time that the error occurred; what API endpoints were being requested; source IP address (along with any useful information on your network -- behind a NAT? proxy?) feel free to send those directly to me. thanks!

[twitter-dev] Re: Random 408 errors having been appearing the last 48 hours
Thank John, I wish it were that simple, it does not happen as often when the request doesn't come from the Mobile Carriers servers.. Our client actually makes use of direct to twitter connections (thorugh mobile carrier) as well as proxied connections through our servers depending on the action being taken. The HTML data issue plagues requests made directly from the device but are much less frequent on requests we proxy through our servers. Every time I try to reproduce on the servers with curl and tcpdump, i have been unsuccessful in getting the bad data to come back. I apologize, I apparently put my initial response on the wrong thread, as I am referring to the HTML META-REFRESH issues with 200 responses that many have been seeing. --Naveen Ayyagari On Sep 9, 12:16 pm, John Kalucki jkalu...@gmail.com wrote: Point your mobile device through a web proxy that you control.

[twitter-dev] Re: Random 408 errors having been appearing the last 48 hours
For our app, this started happening just after the DOS attacks and have persisted since then. So my suspicion is that the 408 error is a throttling mechanism. 408 is a connection read timeout. The problem as I see it is that there is no way that the exception could get thrown so fast if there were really a connection timeout. Is it possible that twitter can customize the timeout for particular API callers? With no code changes on our end, (our app is a server app in java that uses the jtwitter libary) we see 408's and 200's. We haven't changed the code at all and the behavior seems to be about 60% 408 responses and 40% 200. We weren't doing a very good job of giving our users a message that would indicate it was a twitter API issue rather than our software so I have begun updating to the latest version of Jtwitter which handles the errors a lot more explicitly. However, when posting from my sandbox instance, I ONLY get 403 errors (Forbidden). Perhaps this is because the domain (localhost) doesn't match our API key? At any rate, it isn't possible for us to provide a curl output since we are posting via the jtwitter library so I don't know how to provide anything useful as to debugging but this is awfully frustrating for our customers. I'd love to know that there is a way to fix it on my end by doing something different. It will be a pain (we'll have to deploy code in order to make any changes) but it would help us satisfy our own customers.
